After defeating Tomas Martin Etcheverry in four sets, Stan Wawrinka set up a mouth-watering clash with Novak Djokovic at Wimbledon, with the multiple Grand Slam champion joking post-match about not wanting to know his Head to Head.
Wawrinka will face Djokovic tomorrow after reaching the third round for the first time since 2015.
Djokovic himself had his say joking that Wawrinka in terms of meaning to his career stole two Grand Slam titles from him.
Ahead of their 26th meeting, Wawrinka preempted potential questioning saying: "Don't tell me the score."
Before the interviewer pointed out that they had never played on grass, he responded. "I will enjoy it if I don't get killed."
Looking forward to ticking grass off before he retires
He also hinted that it could be the one and only time they do face on the surface: "He's been an amazing champion to watch, the way he is playing is always special but we never play on grass and I'm quite happy to have the chance to play him one time before I finish playing.
"It's going to be a big challenge, hopefully, I can play a higher level and be competitive. Like always against him, I'm going to always try and push to the maximum and we will see what happens."

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
